Hardcover, Giraffe and a Half
blockquote I If you had a giraffe BR and he stretched another half & #133; BR you would have a giraffe and a half. And if you glued a rose BR to the tip of his nose & #133; And & #133; if he put on a shoe BR and then stepped in some glue & #133; And if he used a chair BR to comb his hair & #133; /I /blockquote And so it goes until & #133; but that would be telling.
